This fantastic krypton green color became signature color for Lotus Elise. Lotus with this color is a eye catcher. Lotus is a two seat, rear-wheel drive, mid-engined roadster released in September 1996 by the English manufacturer Lotus Cars. The Elise only carried a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder behind the cockpit. That plus a six-speed shifter was enoughto get the car from a standstill to 60 mph in 6 seconds.
